(KNZA)--Brown County employees have been granted a cost of living raise for 2024.
The Brown County Commission voted unanimously at their November 30th meeting to approve a 50 cent per hour cost of living increase for employees, with the exception of the Commissioners and a Community Corrections position.
In other business, the commission approved a pair of attorney contracts for 2024. They include a contract with Elizabeth Olson to provided guardian ad litem services for $2,600 a month and a contract with Judd Herbster to provide court-appointed attorney services for $3,500 a month.
In addition, the Commission approved a resolution renewing the moratorium on the development of commercial wind energy projects in the county for an additional 18 months. The moratorium was put in place in 2022 to allow for the potential development of land use regulations for the county.
